What We Propose
FOR

Muslin Underwear at 25
cents. Some muslin under
wear is dear at rs cents.
Still, the prevailing de-
mand is for cheap under
garments. Every few days
some manufacturer offers
us a job in cheap under
wear. Most of it we
couldn't afford to touch,
and nine lots out Of ten we
don't even look at. We
know the character of the
goods. They have a repu-
tation. It is very
unenviable. But when
we concluded to hold a
midsummer sale of
cheap underwear, we Sc
lected from goods sub
mitted a line of chemises,
drawers, night gowns,
skirts, and corset covers
that were satisfactory in
quality, creditable in work
manship, and finished to
our mind. We placed an
order. The invoice is at
hand, and the goods will
arrive some time on Satur-
day.
The sale will begin on
Monday.
The uniform price will be
25 cents.

Had the raw material not
been secured before the

goods could not be offered
much less than double the
price. The making has
been first class. This we

The Message.

The message of President Cleveland,
which was delivered too late to enable
us to put in type for our last weeks
issue, we print this week, although
doubtless many of cur readers have
its perussl in our columns.
The message is characteristic of the
and outspokOn. 1t gives
no uncertain utterance on the question
which. sooner or later, would have
have forced itself upon the country
that of a revision of the tariff Of
so grave u nature is the consideration
Of this question, that the President
dsvotes his entire message to its i'm
peratiss importance, rs demanding
immediate and necessitous attention,
He feariessly meets the issue, as be
tween the advocates of the heresy
which the prOtectionist prOfessedly
considers the Gibraltar of the Ameri-
can laberer, in shielding him from the
ruineus competition of the. starveling
stipend paid the employees of foreign
naDufacturers-a protective tariff
and the advocates of the belief and
assertion of faith, that the welfare of
net only the Isborer, bat of all classes
embracing producers and consumers
alike, will be best conserved under q
tariff for revenue simply.
We think the day has gone by when
the aIarmist can successfully rally the
great srmy of American laborers un.
der the banner Of protection" and
induce them to strengthen the hands
of the men whose avarice feeds upon
the very life blood Of their existence
aud rsmerselsssly clamor for prOtec
ton, that under It's disguise they may
thrust still deeper the iron whlok en-
tsrs the souls of their helpless victims
Fostering American Industries, ono,
in their Infancy, and fostering mo
nopolies, with resultant and co equa
strength drawn from these same in
dustriss of today. are quite two differ
ent propositions. The battle is to be
desperate one. Avarics and cppidity
do not lend q listening ear to the voic,
of justics, save "a it is uttered through
the ballot. That the great masses will
blindly commit their interests to thos
whose greed and cupidity is uucheck
ed saveby legal, not moral or human
restraint, is preposterous. So long a
the intelligence of the country Cal
assert its preference through the bal
lot, just SO long may we safely AM
confidently court discussion OF thi
and all other questions vital 10 th
welfare of the country. Let the poll
cy and trend of the government be il

tioHs between all classes, and Ie mur
murings of discomfort, now 50 rife

The story extensively circulated in
regard to the bloody pants, supposed
to belong to John Coughlin, turns out
to be q mistake, as will be seen from
the following dispatch to the Leader !:
ELYRIA, o., December 9.-The sen.
sational report in circulation about
Terrence Coughlin taking pair OF
bloody pants to tailor in this place
on November %, for repairs, and
which it il suspected belonged TO John
Coughlin, Is q canard. An investiga-
ton shows the following facts: Ter
renee Coughlin assisted in subduing
the incepdiary fire at the Metropolitan
Hotel on the night of Nov. 20, and in
some manner he put his leg through
window and cut it quile badly, caus-
ing the blood to flow freely over his
pants. The next morning he took
them to a tailor to have them repair d, ,
and one of the numerous amateur de.
tectives of this place " struck q traiP'
and started the story. The pants were
made to order for Terrence Coughlin
by an Elyria tailor.
